English Domestic Season 2024

I'd expect TRJ to enjoy himself in these conditions.

Let us get through Bamber without any more damage first .

If we get close to 250 i'll be happy.

Great start so far.

Both yourselves and Worcs defying to obvious view of it's a bowl first across the country sort of day.

Michael Booth debuting for Warwickshire. He opened the bowling at Hilton College with John Turner who has made England squads. They were there under Dale Benkenstein who helped get them set up in England no doubt.

The pitch placements can't be helping either. Plenty of three's on offer to the large part of the ground that is helpful.

Cricinfo has most of the games showing as interrupted due to inclement weather cept one or two so I clicked on one - involving warwickshire.

They have a bowler named Chris Rushworth with close 700 FC wickets at an average of 22? Is he the most prolific FC bowler currently next to Anderson himself?

I checked his profile on cricinfo and it's 575 words long. FTR, Sachin Tendulkar's profile on cricinfo is 467 words long.

And he's not only not good enough for ENG but also has barely found a mention among ENG fans and media for tests? Makes no sense.

Adds to my suspicion of records of ENG cricketers and general quality of County cricket.

Hobbs and Hutton among the best openers? GTFO here.

2 more abandoned

Lancs vs Surrey

Durham vs Hampshire

 

[Baldrick]

Pleasantly surprised by our score at lunch, going to leave it at that.

I will never get why counties can't invest in full outfield covers. If they have them in Sri Lanka/Bangladesh why not here?

Surely cost outweighs the loss of play throughout the season

Durham played the uni last weekend in nice enough conditions.

This week was always forecast for lots of rain, could have had the ground covered all week and avoided abandoning today.

Having just read that Josh Tongue had signed for Notts, I was looking forward to seeing him bowl today. No such luck, as he isn't in the line-up. Injured already ffs?

Still injured from last summer.

Same for Olly Stone.

Same for Olly Stone.

Got injured in the PSL after playing both the SA20 and ILT20

Thank you. For all my misgivings about Anderson starting the summer in the test side, at least the old man manages to stay fitter than many of the alternatives. See also Ollie Robinson, of course.

Any reason marnus isn't playing for Glamorgan today?

Resting. Doesn’t join the squad until May.

Cricket Australia limiting how long their players over here for.

Boland and Lyon both arrived yesterday. Already reduced Lyon involvement from the whole season to 7 games and now 6!!!

This. Kingram is playing CC until he arrives.

Worcester off to a great start 133/1

 

[chris.hinton]

Keep it going lads, I may believe we can stay up lol

 

[mackembhoy]

I've seen that the games are being played with Kookaburra, may be part in your success so far @Baldrick and @chris.hinton
